Hello; Forgive me for asking on this list, but I've noticed that their has been some recent changes to the code with regards to netgroup.h, and hoping that someone on this list can help, I've already tried the users list. I am having difficulties setting up ssh (ossh4.3p2 with PAM-enabled [DO I NEED IT?] - NIS -Solaris8/Sparc) to authenticate and allow users passwordless entry based

Dear all, We're using LDAP for user, group and netgroup information. Obviously, samba does not care about /etc/nsswitch.conf when it comes to netgroups and heads for NIS directly, which is what the manpage of smb.conf correctly states. Is there a way to make samba retrieve the netgroup information from LDAP instead of NIS? In case that way is to implement it, may I post this as a feature

I am using CentOS 5.7. I have an /etc/security/access.conf file which has the following: + : root : LOCAL + : @mynetgroup : ALL - : ALL : ALL I thought this is supposed to restrict access to the system to only root and the accounts in the mynetgroup netgroup; however, anyone NIS account is still able to login. It appears that the access.conf is being ignored completely, so I'm thinking

hello, i use Sun Solaris 2.7 and Samba 2.04b. Iwant to use netgroups for host and user to restict access . I user in me samba.conf file host allow = @servergroup the host server has no access. but when i use the hstname of server host allow = server1 it works. I compile the sources of samba be using the autoconfig script. It is a bug or must i use a speziel Compiler Define ? thanks

Hello, I have attached a small patch that enables OpenSSH 4.7p1 to use netgroups for users and hosts entries in the AllowUsers and DenyUsers configuration options in sshd_config. This has the following advantages: * hostnames or ip addresses don't have to be maintained in sshd_config, but you can use meaningful names for groups of users and groups of hosts. * large scale installations can

Hello; Sorry for the crosspost/repost, but I am getting desparate here. I am having difficulties setting up ssh (ossh4.3p2 - NIS -Solaris8/Sparc) to authenticate and allow ossh access based on NIS netgroup. So, users and/or host should be from a valid netgroup triple, contained within the ossh servers .rhosts, .shosts, hosts.equiv and/or shosts.equiv. I am having alot of trouble getting NIS

Hello, I have a question that I was wondering if someone could help me with. I am an admin at RIT and we have a large network base of Sun machines. We do authentication via NIS over NFS. We are about to receive a full lab of Windows boxes and need to set up a samba server to serve users' home directories to the Windows boxes. This initial configuration is relatively easy, but we want

Hi, I have some problems using netgroups with samba, at the moment I'm using the debian-package with Version samba-2.2.3a-6 on a debian testing system. The problem is that samba checks for wrong host-name in the nis-database here is my snippet of the smb.conf to have a exchange partition: --------smb.conf [export] path = /Mirror/export writeable = Yes guest only = Yes

Hello, Has anyone got netgroups working with Samba 3.0.14a where the netgroups are stored in the LDAP directory? I'm using Solaris 9 and SUN's directory server v5.2. What I'm seeing is that samba goes through the motions of looking up a host in a netgroup, but no query is seen by the LDAP server or on the network and the host is never found in the netgroup. Any help would be

I just spent some time trying to figure out how to get OpenSSH to work correctly with NIS and PAM. It seems to work fine, apart from one minor worry I still have (see below). Feedback about grave security risks are welcome :) This is using RedHat 6.1 with updates and the OpenSSH 1.2.2p1-1 RPM's on the NIS server as well as the client. In short, my configuration is: /etc/nssswitch.conf:

Hello, everyone, I'm new to this mailing list. So please excuse me if this topic has been discussed before. We have a network that consists of a few subnetworks. Each subnetwork has its own network address. In each subnet there are Windows 95/98/NT machines, as well as Linux/Unix machines that run Samba. NO NT Domain is used! I've configured cross-subnetwork browsing by 1. using

We have a file server, solaris 2.8 running SAMBA 2.2.8, that has two netbios names and we have an include file for smb.conf for each. We have some machines that are trusted and some that are not. Trusted means standardized windows install, users don't have root, untrusted means not necessarily standard install, users do have root. The trusted machines are defined in an NIS netgroup.

Hi I have been searching for commands to "debug" netgroup membership. I am using netgroups provided by ldap. I can do a ldap query but it seems a bit unwieldy to do. I have found a package on ubuntu called ng-utils https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/ng-utils/0.7-1 which does what I require and compiles very easily. It contains two commands netgroup and innetgr to query netgroup

Hi, I'm trying to limit access to pre-defined set of hosts. I already have a netgroup (in NIS) defined, which I would like to use. Now the man pages for samba say that I can do : hosts allow = @netgroup When I try this I am asked for a username/password even though the share has: public=yes If I limit the hosts to specific hosts i.e.: hosts allow = hostname1, hostname2 This works fine

G'day, I figured some others might benefit from this patch. It allows you to use the samba style @netgroup names in hosts allow and hosts deny. I've tested it on solaris and linux with no apparent problems.. I'll get rid of the static string in a couple of days when I have to worry about trying to get this into prod .. but with any luck someone else may have done that for me.. :)

Hello from the Military-Industrial Complex! We're a large defense contractor located in East Hartford, CT, USA. US export laws make us 'kind of' concerned about who gets in here and what they can access. We've got a problem with some of the groups that we have in our NIS database. Everyone who logs into our Sun system is assigned to one of several groups for export-control

Hello, I'm in the process of migrating from Samba 2.2.8a to 3.0.14a and also changing from NIS to LDAP. I've installed and populated SUN's Directory Server v5.2 and added the required schema extensions and imported some accounts for testing with Samba. Previously I used a NIS netgroup in the hosts allow clause, of the form @hosts_smb and this worked when the samba server system was

Hi All I just installed samba 3.0 with the --with-netgroup-support option. I was under the impression this would allow me to connect to my unix system using NIS authentication. I am using the unix system for just file sharing. I think I am missing something. Below is my smb.conf. I would appreciate any help you can give me. Also the windows guys have implement active directory but I want the

Alle, We are looking to transition from OpenLDAP to CentOS DS. We currently using OpenLDAP V2.3.43-3 with both RHEL 5.4 and Solaris10 clients (auth/netgroup/automount). We restrict user login access to the RHEL and Solaris machines using netgroups. After configuring the CentOS DS, we noticed that while the RHEL restrictions using the /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac and /etc/security/access.conf
